On 01/30/2017 at approximately 1931 hours, I was dispatched by Cortez Dispatch, for a suspicious vehicle, described as a green Chevy pickup, at the Pueblo Community College located at 33057 Hwy 160, in the County of Montezuma, and State of Colorado. Upon approach, I saw a vehicle driving into the parking lot from the westbound lane on Hwy 160. Upon arrival, I saw the vehicle matched the description I was given. The vehicle drove through the parking lot and began to head back towards the exit. I saw a male subject standing outside of the main building, wearing a reflective security vest, waving his arms and pointing at the pickup that was heading towards the exit.…
I approached the vehicle as the driver was exiting the vehicle. The driver was very irate and began yelling “I know I know I was speeding I was just trying to drop off my mom’s car.” For the driver safety I propley placed handcuffs on the driver (checked for fit and double locked) and placed in the back of my squad car (checked before and after for contraband with negative results).…
8:00 P.M. The crowds on the beach were in a festive mood. Thousands had gathered for the big show and the Comet Roman was not disappointing. The comets colors kept shifting as the sunlight hit the giant ball of ice. It had taken on a reddish purple hue and the crowd cheered as the first of the meteorites streaked across the sky.…
Within this journal, I will be evaluating the themes in To Kill A Mockingbird. To begin, one of the themes displayed in the novel is the coexistence of the innocent and evil. One way the book conveys this is when the evil jury kills an innocent black man, Tom. I say this figuratively because the prison camp actually killed him, but the jury got him there. The jury knew Tom was innocent but back then, blacks were always guilty no matter the situaton.…
I would rate this book 6 or 7 out of 10, because is was very detailed on what it was saying and I could imagine what was going on in the book. The thing that I did not like in the book. The story ends with Scout well on her way to growing up, as well. She now has some idea of what being a lady involves, and she no longer seems to mind so much. But importantly, Lee leaves readers with the remembrance that Scout the narrator is still a little girl.…

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is a great book that really has a lot of great moments. A brief summary of chapters 1-6 is the narrator’s brother Jim breaks his arm and we are introduced to Jem and Dill.

Jill then cones and they then go to Radley’s house where warning shots are fired with a shotgun.…
Chapter 1 Page #5 “There was no hurry, for there was nowhere to go, nothing to buy and no money to buy it with, nothing to see outside the boundaries of Maycomb County. But it was a time of vague optimism for some of the people: Maycomb County had recently been told that it had nothing to fear but fear itself.” After researching the Great Depression, I discovered that the quote, “We have nothing to fear, but fear itself” is the most famous phrase from President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s first inaugural speech. FDR gave his inaugural speech after his election in 1932. From this, we can conclude that the story began in 1933.…

As I was reading the first chapter, I am predicting the kids will not meet Boo. I think they will not meet Boo because he is locked up. The people in the town have never really seen Boo. Scout says, “People said he existed, but Jem and I had never seen him” (Lee 10). People had seen Boo before but by using the word “existed” it makes Boo seem very distant and hidden.…
All it took was a dog to make him feel secure From the moment I brought him home as an infant, he was a terrible sleeper. Wait, actually he was a terrible sleeper since he came out. I thought newborns were suppose to sleep 90% of the time. My eldest son proved that he was the 10% that wouldn’t.…
